Is it common for players to play more than 38-40 minutes a game in the playoffs? I imagine they'd get really tired but like, we might need some guys to pick up the slack with Hayward out  :-\

Okay, not sure if it's a combo of Embiid already blowing his wad or Kanter or a combo of both, but since Kanter has come in Embiid hasn't gone inside.

well, the bench has 12 points so far. that is good.

but kemba needs to make some shots.

I do not get the desire to trade Kanter this summer. The guy does nothing but play hard and rebound, rebound, rebound. We are weak in the middle as it is, I love having him around. Plus, he seems very happy in Boston - unlike the previous owner of #11.

last game and this one, embiid comes out like his hair is on fire and does great. then he gets winded. he cannot give max effort for an entire game. good.  ;D

I won't say these words too often, but here they are:  I really like Kanter's defense tonight.  Embiid doesn't seem to want to bang with him.  Everything is fading (or a travel, in the case of that last play...).

Yet another blatant walk by Embiid that goes uncalled lol Clearly shuffled his pivot foot.

Hopefully Stevens finally get it that Kanter is better for the Embiid matchup

Embiid is already at 15 minutes. No way he's lasting at this pace the rest of the game.
